Congress should pass a tax credit for taxpayers equal to $6.2 billion. Taxpayers will decide who gets the money for ebola research. This way no politician is tempted to play benefactor. The 6.2 billion less in tax revenues can be solved by cutting a similar amount from the WH staff funds and WH entertainment first then same expense items for Congress and go down the line to eliminate the EPA…you get my drift…

Oh come on! What would that kind of money be spent on? Our US hospitals could use some updates too. There ain't no way in Hell that Africa could spend that much money, unless it ended up in the hands of politicians like Obama and his ilk.

Why then is the EPA killing the coal industry, shutting down coal fired power plants, pushing ethanol and thereby increasing food prices and putting a damper on fracking on Federal land? Cut all funding to the EPA now.

Phew, I am glad re: that roman candle clarification! I learnt from reading history that ages ago several very smart folks (I wonder how many were dependent on the generosity of their overlords and thought best to say so – 97%?) went around saying the earth was flat…Some even warned adventurers like Columbus that he and his ships would fall off the edge of the earth…Seems to me history is repeating itself? For one these are two very smart folks here – two Nobel Prize winners (of course one’s transcripts are still unknown maybe because he is so smart).

My takeaway: Barney Frank lived his public life to get all the Jewish votes he could. That is he lied to them about his philosophy. Now that he does not need the Jewish votes he has no hesitation in telling them that he fooled them all these years. Typical leftist. Just maybe some of those people fooled by Barney will not support all the folks Barney hangs out with – think Warren, Dean, Clinton, Reid, Schumer et al…

right: Not sure about all of these facets of Barney's life , but the ' lying ' bit rings true ! He is a Democrat.....

Do you think Frank would have lost a single Jewish vote if he came out as an atheist? You clearly don't know Jews very well, do you?

Kudos to WV for taking the EPA to court. More states should be taking this kind of action against the EPA – and not just the coal mining states. About 66 gigawatts of electric power east of the Mississippi is generated by coal fired power plants that the EPA want to shut down. These power plants have been upgrading their emission infrastructure since the Clean Air Act was passed. Enough already! The GOP members of Congress should throw their weight behind this effort. The folks in WV, and all states for that matter, should take note if their Congressional representatives are supporting their state government actions. If not then all Reps and Sens who do not oppose the EPA regulations must be voted out asap. Another way of looking at this is that these are regulations, not laws. Civil disobedience can be a good moral force for correcting awful regulations.

Trust but verify…did CBS FTN verify the scars? Maybe what COS was saying was that POTUS was mad that Vets were still getting healthcare and that he has to wait to divert the budget to Obamacare before November elections?

The first step to teach Theology and/or Religion in public schools is to vote out the progressives/communist. Remember that communism considers religion the opium of the people and wants people to be far away from religion. Communist want people to worship their government – as the sole provider of all their needs. Remember, our president did comment of people ‘clinging to (their guns and) religion’ as a stumbling block to the progressive agenda. In our country today we must vote out the progressives. If one reviews the Democrat ’08 presidential primary debate, one will hear Hillary Clinton proudly describe herself as a ‘progressive’ in the Pres. Woodrow Wilson mold.

Oh papa papa Cuomo they are saying I said bad things. Help!!
And he walks it back. I hope he keeps walking it back until he gets to MA or VT or MD or NJ (Oh wait not there). This is the Guv who gave his fat cat Hollywood buddies tax credits, aka get the taxpayer to pay, for making movies in upstate NY. In the meanwhile neighbouring PA is exploiting its natural gas deposits by allowing fracking. So no wealth creation for the regular folks conservatives or not. Problem is the Dems will now see this guy as an alternative for HRC in spite of the fact that his name ends with a vowel (like Obama’s).

About 20 or so years ago thatwas the exactly the debate- is homosexuality a choIce or caused by some chemical imbalance. I wish now i had paid attention. whatever,i think mr. Holyfield should be allowed to continue that debate.
